New York City Boutique Hotels

Why We LOVE Boutique Hotels in New York City

Why do New Yorkers love New York City boutique hotels? Because we are known for appreciating all things unique, intimate, luxurious, artistic, and sometimes, even quirky (free goldfish during your stay?)

Best Hotels for NYC Events & Holidays

NYC events and holidays bring in massive amounts of visitors, all of which want prime views and access to the July 4th fireworks, Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, New Year's Eve fireworks and more. Here are our top hotel picks for NYC's most popular annual events.

When a New Yorker goes on a “staycation,” we usually choose a New York City Boutique Hotel, known for their services, rooms, dining, amenities and many times, perks, such as free breakfast.

The Hotel on Rivington treats guests to floor-to-ceiling glass walls, offering stunning views of Manhattan in every room. Imagine watching the entire city skyline from your bed or tub.
